Sometimes I sit down with a real good idea of what I want to say. An idea germinates and is ready to be put in this blog…something really profound and interesting. Thoughts about life, about technology, about why I’m in such a good mood. The ideas are there, somewhere, floating around in my head, waiting to be explored.
Other times it is a simple thought that I should put something down here. Especially every time I look at my site (www.BenkoTIPS.com) and see the title of my last post. Sounds pretty dark, and in need of humor. So I try to come up with something.
I was in Dallas last year, doing my MSDN presentation for the first time in front of a live audience. Unknown to me my management showed up (I guess I knew they lived there, but hey? who knew they’d show up…). Well as I said the event was the first time with that particular content, and I had some trouble getting all the demos to work. To make a long story short (like my event), we ended a bit early…ok, an hour and 15 minutes early…
My manager – call him Mike O – said afterwords that if you’re going to end early, then end early. Don’t try to stall or make up stuff, just do it and go on.
So that’s the idea for this post. We’re done.
